Volume 17 - Day 11/354, 2025 - Saturday

This was the coldest morning for our walks this season, 28 degrees, maybe 27, but there was no wind. Me, James, Paul and Richard. We solved a lot of the worlds problems, and likely created a few that someone else can solve. My cable and internet service is $210 per month. Yesterday, Optimum (hereafter referred to as 'those people') stopped making Nextstar (NBC) available. I don't know which company is the selfish one, but I really suspect them both. I do have one tv in the kitchen that is on an antenna, so I can get NBC on that tv. I am on the verge (probably more like planning) to cancel my Optimum cable and keep the internet service, and go to streaming. Just as soon as someone (anyone) comes to the Curious House and makes all the changes for me. Apparently, streaming is what we are all going to be doing in the near future, and I guess I will be okay with that. I still want printed newspapers, though, so I think it is ironic that I am an early adopter for some things, but a luddite for other things. UGH! There were two estate sales this morning, both put on by the same company, and one was awful and the other one was pretty good. I did buy a few things at the second one, and I think everyone bought something except Marge. I think that is two weeks that Marge has not bought anything. After the estate sales, Val, Paulina and I went to brunch, and later I needed to go by the bank, and then it was nap time for me. Tomorrow is supposed to be warmer, and I think I will be able to put the plants outside for a couple days on Tuesday. At least for a couple days. Tomorrow, I am meeting Candy and Terry for brunch, and then I am not sure what the plan will be, not that I need to be making plans, and not that there is anything wrong with that.
